TRAINING

For many of the problems that our clients present we might wonder what role the brain plays. Recent knowledge tells us that a full understanding includes many feedback loops: the brain shaping behavior, health, and emotional health AND behavior, experiences, relationships and cognition affecting brain function, physiology, and structure.



The brain-based therapy approach reveals and utilizes these important reciprocal factors to provide guideposts for rich evidence-based treatment.
